STOP THE FAKE MONUMENT

Mayor of Brantford

Following the installation of the misleading Turkish monument in
Ottawa last August, the Turkish Embassy of Canada is now planning
to erect a monument at the Brantford Mount Hope Veterans' Cemetery
(Ontario) in memory of the "Turkish" internees who were sent from
Brantford to northern Ontario during WWI.
Although the internees were Alevis and Kurds, and the single Turk
buried at the cemetery died two years before the start of the war,
the Turkish embassy is willfully manipulating the evidence and is
depicting the internees as Turks. According to reports, TVO television
network, which is owned by the province of Ontario, is planning a
documentary about the "Turkish" internees and the phoney monument at
the Brantford cemetery.
The Turkish embassy is deliberately politicizing the internees'
incident to force the Canadian government to apologize for interning
"Turks". It is also intruding into Canadian domestic affairs by
installing an Ankara-envisioned monument in a Canadian cemetery. The
underhanded Turkish strategy is to use the hoped-for Canadian apology
to neutralize the Canadian government's condemnation of the Genocide of
the Armenians by Turkey, especially in light of the upcoming centenary
of the Genocide.
We condemn the Turkish ambassador's interference into Canadian
domestic affairs, its attempt to blackmail our government, and
exploitation of the memory of the non-Turkish internees for Ankara's
propaganda purposes. We also call for the CANCELLATION of the fake
monument's construction, and censure the Turkish government and its
representatives in Canada.
